Queen Of Disaster < LAB RATS>

This Is What Makes Us Girls

I felt practically unstoppable! And with Marcus by my side, I was. But then Douglas started talking to me, and that's when I realized I wasn't as part of the plan as I thought i was. Everything I thought about was Marcus. I got up to walk around, but once again my curiosity got the best of me. Douglas was still up? Does this guy ever sleep!?

"Douglas, what's going on?" He jumped, glaring at me as I waved at him with a hint of glee in my eye. "I still need something else, I need to know if my brother has any other secrets! And, that's where you come in!" He muttered, first angrily then jumping up to grab my shoulders a bit too excitedly. I grimaced, shimmying out of his grip. "A bit TOO close, dude. What is it?" I whisper harshly at him. Douglas rolls his eyes, and I stuff my hands in my pockets. "This plan requires a significant amount on your part as well as marcus' but we need to make it look like an accident." Douglas warns me, setting an uneasy feeling in the room. He actually wants me to betray the Davenport's trust? I mean sure, occasionally I would pretend I never saw anything, but full on infiltration into their home!?

"But...a-a-are you sure I...?" I began to speak, but fear began to take over. "If you know for sure, Marcus can record everything! All you need to do is CONFIRM the fact they have whatever it is we're looking for!" He yelled back, only it was more forceful. Great, now I definitely have no choice. "Fine. I go in, I come back, I tell you everything....then you'll never have to here from me again!" I speak up, gaining the courage to finally say something. At first, he looks taken aback. Then he just brushes me off. "Fine, fine! Just get the job done." He hisses, and I give him another glare. After this, no one has to know it was me. I'd be a mole, a traitor, but they'll never know it was me...I hope. The ball's in my court, unfortunately. If I go through with this and douglas is right, him and Marcus get their little revenge scheme into fruition and I get caught in the middle as a....ugh! But if I don't go through with this no doubt about it, he'll send Marcus to kill me and I'll once again be caught in the middle!

Talk about a lose/lose situation. I took a deep breath and shook my head. There's no turning back now. I was in deep thought, my brain stirred around anxiously, and a slight pounding started in my head. "I'm so stupid. I never should've done this...I never should've WANTED to do this!" I tell myself, barley speak in an audible voice. Marcus... my thoughts always seem to find their way to him. He's so stuck in following douglas. I just want to leave with him and drive away and never ever look back! But I'm gonna do it. I'm gonna go as far as this thing takes me, and I'm leaving with or without Marcus! 

"I officially hate everything."

"Why the long face, bookworm?" I jumped up, a smile growing on my face. Marcus sat next to me, and wrapped an arm around my shoulder. "Douglas told me everything. You're gonna do great." Marcus coaches me on, and more guilt builds up in me. "Yeah..." I trail off, as a single tear goes down my face. This was it. The first of many tears I've shed. The first of many betrayals no one saw coming.

Not even him.
